Relisted- last deal the guy had no money!

Regretfully selling my MK2 8V Jetta. I am the second registered owner and the Car has not been registered since 2009. It's been sitting and it's time to move on to a good home. Runs well, lots of new parts over the last few years. A/C blows ice cold, it was converted to R134A. In 2009 both fuel pumps and fuel filter were replaced along with complete exhaust system. In spring of 2011 a new heater core was installed as well as new blower motor resistor. In 2012 brembo front rotors and new frt brake pads were installed. July 2011 it got a repaint. It's been driven less than 280 miles since all work was done. Car is not a perfect it's 22 years old. Currently only needs a battery, a new speedo cable and some minor TLC if you want, and perhaps replace the windshield as it has a rock chip/crack. The body on this car is mint, cleanest ones around and it runs well, interior is clean and in great shape. A flaw with interior is that the dash has started to crack. You can make this a daily driver, but you don't find many like this anymore, at least not this clean, so I would love to see a true enthusiast take this car home. This was the last year of the MK2 body and really is the Perfect car for an MK 2 enthusiast. Maybe convert to a 16v or a nice VR6 sleeper.

Disclaimer, there is no warranty expressed or implied. Vehicle is being sold as-is where is. Vehicle is 22 years old, expect normal wear and tear, minor dings and scratches, and it is up to you to decided its road worthiness. I have taken this on a 300 mile round trip to NY and NJ with no issues prior to 2012.

Payment: a deposit of $500.00 is expect at close of auction, this is non refundable, so if you can't afford this car, don't bid! Final payment expected in cash at pickup, no more than 10 days after the end of the auction. A postal money order will also be accepted, and vehicle will be allowed for pickup only after the money order is cashed.

Shipping or pickup: winning bidder is responsible for all shipping arrangements and fees. I will assist with any scheduling and make certain I am available for pickup.

Update: car is listed for sale locally and I reserve the right to cancel auction early. Car is in above average condition. NADA lists this car at $3,575 average, $5,150 for high retail. I feel this car is right in the middle but willing to let it go for less than that.

VW builds 250,000th Passat in Chattanooga in just two years

Sun, 26 May 2013

It hasn't been without incident or union organizing drive, but the Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, TN has built its 250,000 Passat in just a little over two years. The Night Blue Passat TDI with black leather has come just two years and five weeks after the first customer car came off the line on April 18, 2011.
In the last year the plant operated at the 150,000-unit capacity that it was intended for, but the downturn in Passat sales and subsequent worker layoffs mean it will be a challenge to repeat the feat. The plant does have the world's largest solar park, though, and you can't take that away from them.
You'll find the official hand-clapping in the press release below.

2013 Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition brings exclusivity to the granddaddy of hot hatches

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

The Volkswagen booth at this year's Chicago Auto Show was filled with various special edition models of the Beetle and GTI. In addition to the GTI Wolfsburg Edition, the Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition helps to wrap up the 2013 model year as VW readies the all-new MkVII Golf next year.
Only 3,000 of the GTI Driver's Edition models will be produced in four-door body style only, and the available color palette will be limited to just Candy White, Carbon Steel Gray and Deep Black. The package will come standard with the GTI's Sunroof and Navigation package, and it will add unique features such as the 18-inch "Laguna" wheels, a golf-ball shift knob, partial leather seats and red-stitching on the carpeted floor mats. Buyers of this package will also get a certificate of authenticity and some GTI swag such as a hat, keychain and parking sign.
Starting price for the 2013 Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition is $29,695 with the six-speed manual and $30,795 if you choose the DSG - both prices exclude destination charges.

Auto sales in March and first quarter down nearly across the board

Wed, Apr 3 2019

Nearly every major automaker reported weak U.S. sales for March and the first quarter of 2019, citing a rough start to the year, but said a robust economy and strong labor market should encourage consumers to buy more vehicles as 2019 rolls on. GM, which no longer releases monthly sales figures, saw first-quarter sales fall 7 percent, with declines across all brands. Sales of Silverado pickup trucks fell nearly 16 percent and the high-margin Chevy Suburban large SUV dropped 25 percent. Ford also no longer releases monthly sales numbers, but is due to release its first-quarter sales figures on Thursday. According to industry data, Ford's sales fell 2 percent in the quarter and 5 percent in March. Ford representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment. FCA reported a 7 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and a 3 percent drop for the first quarter. All of FCA's brands dropped in March, except for Ram, which saw a 15 percent increase in pickup truck sales. "The industry had a tough first quarter, but with spring finally starting to show its face and continued strong economic indicators ... we are confident that new vehicle sales demand will strengthen going forward," FCA's U.S. head of sales, Reid Bigland, said in a statement. Toyota reported a 3.5 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and 5 percent for the first quarter, hurt by declining demand for its Corolla sedans and Camry vehicles. "While some of our competitors are abandoning sedans, we remain optimistic about the future of the segment," Toyota said in a statement. Nissan posted a 5.3 percent drop in sales in March, and its first-quarter sales were down 11.6 percent. Honda and Hyundai bucked the trend. Honda's U.S. sales rose 4.3 percent in March and 2 percent in the quarter, while Hyundai's were up 1.7 percent and 2.1 percent, respectively. Passenger-car sales suffered throughout the January-March quarter compared with the same period in 2018 as Americans continued to abandon them in favor of larger, more comfortable pickup trucks and SUVs, which are far more profitable for automakers. The battle for market share in the particularly lucrative large-pickup truck market intensified in the quarter, as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' Ram brand outsold the U.S.' No. 1 automaker General Motors' Chevrolet-brand trucks. The two automakers have both launched redesigned pickup trucks.
